Coconut Oil/Diet

Goodbye Atkins, Hello The Coconut Diet ; What You Need to Know About the Weight-loss Trend Sweeping America

The authors suggest we should all eat one to two tablespoons of coconut oil, depending on our weight, dissolved in a cup of hot water 20 minutes before each meal. That boosts our metabolisms and fills us so much we might not even want all of what follows.

What do you all think of this new 'Fad' ?
I have to come up with some diet book so I can make some money. Americans are so stupid... they will buy anything with the word 'diet', 'Fat Loss' and not having to work-out.

I'll support my Canadian friend on that statement!



50 years from now, somewhere, there'll be a newpaper headline that reads:

"Study shows proper diet and excersise best way to lose weight"
sub line reads: "Average weight of Americans reaches 230 lbs."

No shortcuts, no tricks, no suction.

The ONLY thing I'd use coconut oil for is lubricant!

Get this:

% of Americans overweight = 65%
% of Americans who smoke = 35%


...thats 100%.



Is there a connection??



I think so.....








Its also NO coinkee-dinkee that Americans are eating the lowest percentage of dietary fat in history, yet the 65% is also a historic high

Except that diets don't work. The headline will more likely read "Study shows proper diet and excersise best way to prevent weight gain in the first place". Once you've become fat you're pretty much screwed

And yeah, that's one dumb and gimmiky fad alright.
